New Zealand's international Queen of choreography is here. We will teach Tony to lose some of those country moves. TONIGHT, THE SUPERMARKET CHECKOUT GOING SUGAR-FREE. IT'S CRAZY TO THINK THAT WE'RE THE FIRST SUPERMARKET IN NZ TO DO THAT. BUT WILL IT HELP KIWIS CHANGE THEIR EATING HABITS? PLUS ` BUSINESS IS BOOMING. IT'S ATTRACTED PEOPLE FROM ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT WALKS OF LIFE. AND THE BEST PART? IT'S JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. WE'VE NOT HARDLY TAPPED INTO THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET AT ALL. AND SHE WENT SOLO IN 2016. # BANG THAT HEAD LIKE I TOLD YA. # SO WHAT'S NEXT FOR PARRIS GOEBEL? ASB AND SEVEN SHARP ` PROUDLY PARTNERING TO BRING YOU THE STORIES THAT MATTER. Good evening. I can't believe you would criticise my dance moves. And my old-fashioned? Dane Cole was in the news. It looked like he barely got out of bed. Beauden Barrett is trimmed up. You are a that the dishevelled Hugh Grant, or proper, like Beauden Barrett. SO, WE'RE ALL ABOUT TO LOOSEN OUR BELTS A LITTLE ON THE DIET FRONT AND HAVE A FEW CHRISTMAS TREATS. THAT'S BECAUSE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, IT'S SAFE TO SAY WE'RE EATING TOO MUCH SUGAR, AND THAT'S PARTLY BECAUSE THE SUGAR IS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND HARD TO AVOID. BUT ONE NELSON SUPERMARKET WANTED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. HERE'S KRISTIN HALL. JAZZY 'WINTER WONDERLAND' AHH, CHRISTMAS ` A TIME FOR INDULGENCE. CHEERING A TIME YOU CAN FIND SUGAR JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE. EXCEPT, AT GARY WATSON'S SUPERMARKET, YOU WON'T FIND IT IN THE MOST CONVENIENT SPOT ` NOT HERE, OR HERE, OR HERE. SO WE USED TO HAVE FRIDGES FULL OF SOFT DRINKS AND REALLY HIGH-SUGAR ITEMS. THE SHELVES WERE FULL OF CHOCOLATE BARS AND OTHER UNHEALTHY GOODS, SO WE'VE REALLY JUST TRIED TO SAY TO OUR CUSTOMERS, 'HEY, YOU STILL CAN GET IT, BUT WE'RE JUST NOT GOING TO PUT IT AT CHECKOUTS.' YOU SEE, GARY USED TO BE A BIG FAN OF THIS SORT OF STUFF. DEFINITELY ENERGY DRINKS WERE, FOR ME, I WAS A BIT NAUGHTY WITH, AND I LOVE CHOCOLATE. YOU DON'T GET A BODY LIKE THIS BY EATING UBER HEALTHY. HE THOUGHT IF HIS HABITS NEEDED CHANGING, MAYBE HIS CUSTOMERS' DID TOO. VERY TRENDY-LOOKING SALADS IN A JAR. YEAH, YEAH. SO WE'VE TRIED TO MAKE IT REALLY BRIGHT AND COLOURFUL. SO WE'VE GOT OUR SALAD RANGE, FRESH FRUIT. SUGAR FREE? I THINK SO. I HAVEN'T TRIED IT MYSELF. (LAUGHS) GARY'S GOT GROCERIES IN HIS BLOOD. SO, THIS IS MY NANA AND GRANDDAD, LAILA AND IVAN, IN ONE OF THEIR FIRST STORES. AND THIS IS MY MUM AND DAD. SO THIS WAS TAKEN IN THIS STORE BACK WHEN I WAS A YOUNG FELLA. THINGS HAVE CHANGED A LOT SINCE HIS GRANDPARENTS' DAY. THERE IS SUGAR AND FAT ENTERING A LOT OF THE GOODS. IT IS A BIT OF A SHAME. AND HIS WIFE LISA IS A BIT OF A HEALTH NUT. HE TELLS ME THAT YOU BASICALLY SAID, (LAUGHS) 'YOU'RE GETTING TOO FAT. CUT DOWN ON THE FEEDS.' YEAH, HE'S REAL SUBTLE LIKE THAT (!) (CHUCKLES) NOT QUITE LIKE THAT. SO GARY THOUGHT, 'WHY NOT MAKE THE RETURN TO FRESH?' IT'S NOT EVEN THAT HARD. IT'S CRAZY TO THINK WE'RE THE FIRST SUPERMARKET IN NZ TO DO THAT. THIS IS THE BEST SUPERMARKET IN NZ! LAUGHTER WOW. HIGH PRAISE. ABSOLUTELY. I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA ` EASIER FOR ME WITH THE KIDS, AND I HAVE A 5-YEAR-OLD TOO, SO IT'S BRILLIANT. A RECENT UK STUDY ANALYSED THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF SUPERMARKET AISLE FOODS THAT WERE AT JUST THE RIGHT HEIGHT... FOR CHILDREN. IT FOUND 90% OF FOODS IN A CHILD'S EYE LINE WERE UNHEALTHY, WITH THE HEALTHIEST ITEM BEING SUGAR-FREE CHEWING GUM, WHICH ISN'T EVEN A FOOD! DR ROB BEAGLEHOLE IS A NELSON LOCAL AND NOT THE BIGGEST FAN OF THE SWEET STUFF. IT'S A BRILLIANT IDEA, AND ONE THAT GARY SHOULD BE CONGRATULATED FOR, COS WHAT HE'S DOING, ACTUALLY, IS HE'S SHOWING LEADERSHIP. WELL DONE, BABY. THANKS. ALL DONE. YOU'D THINK, GIVEN KIWIS' LOVE FOR ALL THINGS SICKLY SWEET, GARY WOULD BE RUNNING AT A LOSS. HE ISN'T. THE FINANCIAL IMPACT, WHEN WE MADE THAT DECISION, COULD'VE BEEN REALLY, REALLY BAD. SO FAR IT'S LOOKING REALLY POSITIVE, AND WE'RE HOPING WE'LL BE BREAKING EVEN, AND IT'S LOOKING LIKE THAT WILL BE THE CASE. BUT, LIKE ALL GOOD DECISIONS, IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT THE FINANCES. IT'S ABOUT WHAT I WANT TO SEE, AND I'M VERY PROUD OF THIS SHOP. I'M PROUD MY DAD HAD IT, THAT MY GRANDDAD HAD IT, AND WE'RE PART OF THE FURNITURE, REALLY. IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY. He has a pair of gonads. It is spontaneous. I know, having kids, is that my little one will reach for a lollipop. Sometimes it is easier to give her that. You can take my two, who are quite well-behaved. NOW WHEN YOU THINK OF PLAYING VIDEO GAMES, YOU THINK OF PEOPLE COOPED UP INDOORS. BUT THE SUPER STREET ARCADE IN CHRISTCHURCH HAS FOUND A WAY TO MAKE IT A WHOLE LOT MORE PUBLIC, AND PLAYERS WILL EVEN GET SOME FRESH AIR AT THE SAME TIME. MIKE THORPE EXPLAINS. VIDEO GAME MUSIC VIDEO GAMING HAS COME OUT OF THE SHADOWS. JUMP, JUMP, JUMP, JUMP! ACTUALLY, THIS ONE MIGHT REQUIRE SUNSCREEN. ALL GROAN WE'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON IT. IT'S A WORLD FIRST. AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL, IT'S A WORLD FIRST WHERE THERE'S A GIANT ARCADE GAME OUTSIDE. IT'S THE BRAINCHILD OF GAP FILLER ` THOSE CLEVER FOLK WHO'VE BEEN PUTTING WEIRD STUFF IN DISUSED SPACES SINCE 2011. THIS CITY GAINED A REPUTATION AFTER THE QUAKES FOR A LOT OF CREATIVE ENERGY. WELL, NOW THEY'RE DOING IT IN BRAND-NEW USED SPACES TOO. CONTINUING TO MAKE A CITY THAT IS INTERESTING AND CREATIVE, PERHAPS A BIT DIFFERENT IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THE LONG-TERM HEALTH OF CHRISTCHURCH. I THINK THAT MEANS IN A GREY CONCRETE JUNGLE, WE NEED SOME COLOUR AND COOL STUFF, LIKE THIS. ATTACK OF THE CONES. IT'S BEEN CREATED BY CEREBRAL FIX, WHO ARE JUST DOWN THE ROAD AT EPIC. AND IT'S ROAD CONES THAT HAVE COME TO LIFE AND ARE TAKING OVER THE CITY. THE GAME IS BASED ON THE 80'S CLASSIC MOON PATROL, FOR THOSE THAT KNOW GAMES. AND THERE ARE OTHER FAMILIAR CHARACTERS. THERE'S GERRY! MINISTER BROWNLEE IS IN THE GAME. OH, THERE'S THE WIZARD, AND WE SEE LOTS OF BUILDINGS THAT WE RECOGNISE FROM THE CITY. IT'LL BE ATTRACTING CROWDS HERE UNTIL NEXT AUTUMN. IT'S LIKE A DOUBLE SPECTACLE. SO THERE'S THE GAME ITSELF AND THE JOYSTICK, BUT THEN THERE'S WATCHING THE PEOPLE PLAY THE GAME. LOOK CLOSE ENOUGH, YOU'LL SEE PEOPLE WATCHING THE PEOPLE WATCHING THE GAME WATCHING US MAKE THE PODIUM. ALL CHEER THAT'S NOT BAD, EH? You know what I like? Christchurch is doing innovative things because they can/ that is not happening anywhere else. Anything is possible. I was waiting to see your cameo. On the video game. Was it not on there? The Gerry Brownlee was on the I don't get why I am not. The locals are getting frustrated in Kaikoura. Gerry did not like it. WHO CAN FORGET THESE KIDS? IT'S THE FIRST STUDENT-LED CAFE IN THE WORLD. MICHAEL HOLLAND CROWNS HIS FAVOURITE PERSON OF THE YEAR. HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT? PLUS HOW A BIT OF PEDAL POWER IS GIVING OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES A LEG UP. RATHER THAN BEING A TOWN THAT PEOPLE DRIVE THROUGH, IT'S NOW SOMETHING PEOPLE SEE AS A DESTINATION. ALSO SHE HUNG OUT WITH JUSTIN BIEBER. # IS IT TOO LATE NOW TO SAY SORRY? # SO WHICH CELEBRITY WILL ENLIST PARRIS GOEBEL'S SKILLS NEXT? SHE'S LIVE IN STUDIO SOON. JUSTIN BIEBER'S 'MISTLETOE' # UNDER THE MISTLETOE. # EVERYONE'S GATHERING AROUND THE FIRE. # CHESTNUTS ROASTIN' LIKE A HOT JULY # I SHOULD BE CHILLING WITH MY FOLKS, I KNOW, He looks too young in that video clip. Christmas is about classic songs, not that there is. Patti Smith was invited to perform at Dylan's ceremony anyway. She rehearsed it. That is such a great song, Hard Rain. TOURISM IS BOOMING IN THIS COUNTRY RIGHT NOW. JUST LAST WEEK JOHN KEY ANNOUNCED ANOTHER 100 GRAND FOR HIS FAMED CYCLE TRAILS AROUND THE COUNTRY. YES, CYCLISTS ARE FLOCKING HERE IN THEIR THOUSANDS, AND FOR MANY SMALLER TOWNS IN THE WELLINGTON REGION, THE INFLUX IS REVITALISING BUSINESS. SO REBECCA EDWARDS JUMPED ON A BIKE TO MEET THE LOCALS, REAPING THE REWARDS OF A BIT OF PEDAL POWER ALONG THE RIMUTAKA CYCLE WAY. OK, SO LET'S BE CLEAR. I'M NO CYCLIST. TRY THAT ONE, REBECCA. SEE HOW IT FITS SIZE WISE. I'M TALL BUT NOT QUITE THAT TALL. (LAUGHS) BUT TODAY I'M GETTING A LESSON... ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO. ...IN THE POWER OF PEDALS. THIS IS THE FIRST TUNNEL ON THE TRAIL OFFICIAL, SO THIS IS THE MANGAROA TUNNEL. IT'S ATTRACTED PEOPLE FROM ALL DIFFERENT SORTS OF WALKS OF LIFE THAT WE MIGHT NOT HAVE SEEN PREVIOUSLY ON TO BIKES. KICKING OFF IN PETONE, THE RIMUTAKA CYCLE TRAIL RUNS OVER THE RANGES, LOOPING RIGHT THROUGH SOUTH WAIRARAPA TO WRAP UP ON THE REGION'S SOUTH COAST. AND WHILE STUNNING SCENERY IS A GIVEN, THE TRAIL'S ALSO ROLLING PUNTERS RIGHT TO THE FRONT DOOR OF LOCAL BUSINESSES ALONG THE WAY. IT'S EVERYTHING. IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT. RATHER THAN BEING A TOWN THAT PEOPLE DRIVE THROUGH, IT'S SOMETHING PEOPLE NOW SEE AS A DESTINATION. THE COMMUNITY RECKONS WITH THAT KIND OF ATTENTION, THEIR SMALL TOWN IS BLOSSOMING. I THINK WHAT WE'VE BEEN SEEING IN THE LAST 18 MONTHS IS A NUMBER OF BUSINESSES OPENING UP. WE'VE GOT BOUTIQUE ACCOMMODATION COMING ON STREAM, SO REALLY IT IS A CHANCE FOR US TO MARKET OURSELVES TO A GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE. WHICH I LIKE TO REFER TO THEM AS THE SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE, BECAUSE THEY ARE. (LAUGHS) WE ALL LOVE SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE. WE DO. WE DO. THERE REALLY IS NO DENYING THE IMPACT THOSE SHINY HAPPY PEOPLE ARE HAVING. JUST LAST YEAR NEARLY A 100,000 RIDERS HIT THIS TRAIL, INJECTING A WHOPPING $3.3M INTO THE REGIONAL ECONOMY. FOR STU, WHOSE BEEN RUNNING GREEN JERSEY CYCLES FOR AROUND FIVE YEARS, THE GROWTH HAS BEEN NOTHING SHORT OF PHENOMENAL. WE STARTED WITH 15 BIKES. AND HOW MANY BIKES DO YOU HAVE NOW? SO NOW WE HAVE AROUND 250 BIKES. IT'S GONE A LITTLE BIT BONKERS, REALLY. IN THE LAST TWO YEARS WE'VE SEEN GREATER THAN EIGHT-FOLD GROWTH, WHICH I THINK IN ANYONE'S BOOKS IS HUGE. FROM FOOD,... THERE YOU GO. ...TO REMOTE ACCOMMODATION. WE'VE BEEN HERE 22-23 YEARS NOW. FOR MANY SMALL BUSINESSES IN THESE PARTS, THEY'VE NEVER HAD SO MANY CYCLISTS ON THEIR BOOKS. IN 2014 THE THREE MONTHS FROM SEPTEMBER, OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER, ONLY 8% OF THE PEOPLE WHO STAYED HERE WERE CYCLISTS, AND NOW IT'S GONE IN THIS LAST THREE MONTH PERIOD TO 38% OF THE PEOPLE STAYING HERE. AND THE BEST THING? THESE GUYS RECKON IT'S ONLY THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. THE BEST CASE IN POINT IS PROBABLY STILL THE CENTRAL OTAGO RAIL TRAIL, WHERE YOU SEE THE DEVELOPMENT IN THE SMALL TOWNS LIKE NASEBY AND SO FORTH ALONG THE WAY. IT'S GOT THE ABILITY TO DO THAT RIGHT AROUND THE COUNTRY, AND PARTICULARLY RIGHT AROUND THE WAIRARAPA. SO WE'VE NOT EVEN TAPPED` WE'VE NOT HARDLY TAPPED INTO THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET AT ALL, SO THERE'S ALL OF THAT TO COME AS WELL, SO I THINK IT'S INCREDIBLY, INCREDIBLY EXCITING. That looks so much fun. In Otago this year, it is like a highway, that trail. John Key when he was first elected, said to have a brainstorm. He came up with a cycleway. It is so popular. Around Taranaki, there is popular as well. I hope there is the same effect with the Auckland Harbour Bridge. You are a useless cyclist along with Rebecca. I hope you get some practice. Unlike Lycra man. NOW LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT ANOTHER ONE OF OUR REPORTER'S TOP STORIES OF THE YEAR. MICHAEL HOLLAND HAS CHOSEN TO REMINISCE ABOUT A SMALL SOUTH AUCKLAND CAFE THAT WAS RUN BY A GROUP OF SCHOOL KIDS. THE REAL THING THAT MADE IT MEMORABLE FOR HIM, WAS A SUPERSTAR BY THE NAME OF BAILEY. MY ABSOLUTE STANDOUT FOR THE YEAR ` A STUDENT-LED CAFE AT AN INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL IN SOUTH AUCKLAND. IT'S THE FIRST STUDENT-LED CAFE IN THE WORLD. RUN BY A BOUNCING BALL BY THE NAME OF BAILEY. IN THE WORLD! I'M GONNA STICK WITH THAT STATEMENT. WHO WAS ABSOLUTELY LARGER THAN LIFE. HE JUST STARTED DANCING. HE JUST STARTED MOVING AND GROOVING BEHIND THE COUNTER, AND IT JUST CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. HOW COULD YOU NOT LOVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT? THANK YOU. COME AGAIN. HE WAS A RAPPER, A DANCER. EVERYTHING IN ONE, AS WELL AS SERVING REALLY GOOD COFFEE AND FOOD. CAN I GET A LONG BLACK, PLEASE? WHAT'S REALLY SWEET ABOUT THE PROJECT WAS STARTED BY THE SCHOOL'S PRINCIPAL, WHO SADLY PASSED AWAY VERY EARLY ON, BUT THE KIDS JUST RAN WITH THE PROJECT. HE WOULD BE SO PROUD OF HIS CHILDREN, HIS CHILDREN, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW HE SAW THEM. COMPLETE LIFE LESSONS. THIS IS ABOUT HOW YOU PREPARE FOOD, FOOD HYGIENE, FOOD SAFETY, ECONOMICS, STOCK-TAKING. IT HAD EVERYTHING. YOU'VE ACTUALLY GOT A LITTLE BIT ON THE END OF YOUR NOSE, YOUNG MAN. WITH SOMETHING LIKE THAT AS A FOCAL POINT, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU FOR COMING. AND HOW ABOUT THAT DANCE JUST ONE MORE TIME? DANCE MUSIC There is natural. You either got it or you haven't. Are you okay? She was nominated in the Far North Sea Rescue.

IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD OF THIS SAMOAN SUPERSTAR OF 'SWAG', THEN YOU SHOULD TAKE A HARD LOOK AT YOURSELF. PARRIS GOEBEL IS NZ'S VERY OWN QUEEN OF THE INTERNATIONAL DANCE SCENE.

AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, SHE'S RELEASED HER OWN ALBUM AND A SERIES OF 'PARRIS FANTASTIC' DANCE VIDEOS. PARRIS IS HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS AND JOINS US NOW TO TALK ABOUT HER INCREDIBLE YEAR. Has it been a successful year? A lot of success and good things have happened. Are you exhausted? Ready for a holiday. Do you get a break? I am going to Samoa in two weeks. This is the breaking news ` Elton John. I would give a leg to work with him. He has chosen me to be part of a judging board that will choose who will do his next video clips. It is for old songs that never had video clips. Tiny Dancer is a brilliant song. How would you judge that? It is a completely different style. As a dancer, I can see movement to anything, fast or slow. How does it happen that Elton John says he will get you to be on the judging panel. Maybe he saw 'Sorry'. My dad manages me, so he gets the call is. There is a very good point. The bigot you get, the more artists you work with. Does that mean you can be more creative? The budgets don't get much bigger. It is kind of sad, but there isn't much money in the industry. I make do with whatever I have. This is a realistic career for you. I knew able to make a living? I am at a comfortable place, choreography-wise. A lot of people are asking for me. Four other people it must be a struggle. What would you place on a video, the weight, on the choreography for a hit? I think it had a huge part to play and how successful that song was. He owes you. Do you look to change? You have your sound and rhythm. At the trends that you are riding? I never follow trends. I do my own thing. I always look to have fun and be creative. You are diversifying. You are getting into movies, I read. How does that fit with what you are doing now? I do different things. I have different careers. I get so excited with new things. We cannot wait to talk to you after you meet Elton John and how that works out. Have a well-deserved rest. We are out of here.
